Layla believes her sparkling pink sneakers are magical.
Whenever she wears them, everything seems to go her way. She earns a perfect score on her spelling test, remembers every line in the school play, and shines during a recess game. Layla is certain her special sneakers are the reason for her success.
But on the morning of an important dance performance, her favorite shoes are still wet from being washed. Nervous and unsure, Layla must step onto the stage wearing a plain pair of sneakers.
Will she still be able to shine without her favorite shoes?
Sky's Stories: The Magic Sneakers is a bright, joyful story about hard work, preparation, courage, and self-confidence. Inspired by a childhood memory and an original idea created by Skylar McBride and her father, this encouraging picture book reminds young readers that their greatest strength does not come from something they wear.
The real magic has always been inside them.
